I believe in treating people well and caring for them :)
Coming from tour guiding entrepreneur parents, I've traveled a decent amount in my life. I come from a multicultural family, so I've grown up moving around quite a bit. I love traveling not for the places, but for the people! Meeting new people from different cultures is refreshing for me.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

To build friendships everywhere I go! I've only couch surfed a couple if times, but the people I've met were truly amazing, and I love the idea of meeting people everywhere I find myself.

Interessi

There's so much to learn, so many people to meet, and so many places to explore!!! I love anything artistic. I love film and music and poetry.... I also love to travel, and I generally prefer nature over cities. I think the world is a huge playground ment to be played in and lived in.

Musica, film e libri

I love jazz! Particularly live jazz. I don't particularly know much about it, but I enjoy listening to it. I also love indie music. I'm open to all music and love to learn about a culture through its music.

When it comes to movies, I can never settle on any one movie. I study film in school and have been making videos for 6 years. My taste in movies is always changing. I really enjoy movies from Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, and Wes Anderson. I also love documentaries! But I'm always looking to discover new films to watch.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I spent one-month road tripping west coast American National Parks with my dad. We each had our own small tent and plotted it down wherever we found ourselves. It was definitely an experience that toughened me up; for we only had shower access once during the month, so sink hair washes and wet whips had to do. I've also spent a month backpacking through Europe by train with a friend. I ended up meeting people along the way which led me to volunteer at a hostel for 3 weeks in Budapest, where I truly saw the diversity and uniqueness of people.

But by far the most amazing thing I've done in my life is walking 500 miles across Spain on the Camino de Santiago. It took me 1 month to complete and I've met the most amazing travelers along the way. The biggest lesson I've learned on the Camino was to let go of things that no longer serve me and embrace the things to come. This lesson came quite literally when I let go of things in my backpack that no longer served me. I realized that my load was too heavy and a lot of things were not serving me. I took this into my philosophy in life and try to let go and embrace life.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Good conversations :) Music, movies, culture, experiences. I love learning from other people with an open mind :) I also love to cook with people!
